When I tried to start my Morgan today, the engine wouldn't start, but there was a rattling noise - like a machine gun.

Does maybe the starter pinion not engage properly?
I tried to move my Morgan a bit so that the teeth of the gears come into a different position, but this didn't help.
(Since it is parked in a duplex garage, I have no room in the front and I can't push it upwards.).

Can you relate to the error description rattling noise instead of starting engine?
And how to solve the problem?
